We estimate the number of lines on a non-K3 quartic surface. Such a surface with only isolated double point(s) contains at most twenty lines; this bound is attained by a unique configuration of lines and by a surface with a certain limited…

We show that there cannot be more than 64 lines on a quartic surface admitting isolated rational double points over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p \neq 2,\,3$, thus extending Segre--Rams--Sch\"utt theorem. Our proof…

We show that the maximal number of (real) lines in a (real) nonsingular spatial quartic surface is 64 (respectively, 56). We also give a complete projective classification of all quartics containing more than 52 lines: all such quartics are…

We prove the sharp bound of at most 64 lines on complex projective quartic surfaces (resp. affine quartics) that are not ruled by lines. We study configurations of lines on certain non-K3 surfaces of degree four and give various examples of…

We show that the maximal number of singular points of a normal quartic surface $X \subset \mathbb{P}^3_K$ defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $2$ is at most $20$, and that if equality is attained, then the…

We show, in this second part, that the maximal number of singular points of a quartic surface $X \subset \mathbb{P}^3_K$ defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic 2 is at most 14, and that, if we have 14…

We prove that a K3 quartic surface defined over a field of characteristic 2 can contain at most 68 lines. If it contains 68 lines, then it is projectively equivalent to a member of a 1-dimensional family found by Rams and Sch\"utt.

This paper deals with surfaces with many lines. It is well-known that a cubic contains 27 of them and that the maximal number for a quartic is 64. In higher degree the question remains open. Here we study classical and new constructions of…

We show that the number of lines contained in a supersingular quartic surface is 40 or at most 32, if the characteristic of the field equals 2, and it is 112, 58, or at most 52, if the characteristic equals 3. If the quartic is not…

We investigate the number of straight lines contained in a K3 quartic surface \(X\) defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 3. We prove that if \(X\) contains 112 lines, then \(X\) is projectively equivalent to the…

We show that the maximal number of singular points of a normal quartic surface $X \subset \mathbb{P}^3_K$ defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic 2 is at most 12, if the minimal resolution of $X$ is not a…

We prove that there exists a one to one correspondence between smooth quartic surfaces with an inner Galois point and Eisenstein $K3$ surfaces of type $(4, 3)$. Furthermore we characterize the quartic surface with 8 (the maximum number)…

We prove that the maximal number of conics, a priori irreducible of reducible, on a smooth spatial quartic surface is 800, realized by a unique quartic. We also classify quartics with many (at least 720) conics. The maximal number of real…

Let k be a field of characteristic other than 2,3. We prove that there are no geometrically smooth quartic surfaces in IP^3 with more than 64 lines. As a key step, we derive the sharp bound that any line meets at most 20 other lines on a…

In [BN] the authors construct a special complex of degree 20 over M, which for an open three dimensional set parametrizes smooth complex surfaces of degree four invariant which are Heisenberg invariant and each member of the family contains…

Over a field k of characteristic 3, we prove that there are no smooth quartic surfaces S in IP^3 with more than 112 lines. Moreover, the surface with 112 lines is projectively equivalent over k-bar to the Fermat quartic. As a key…

A monoid hypersurface is an irreducible hypersurface of degree d which has a singular point of multiplicity d-1. Any monoid hypersurface admits a rational parameterization, hence is of potential interest in computer aided geometric design.…

For any field k of characteristic at most 5 we exhibit an explicit smooth quartic surface in projective threespace over k with trivial automorphism group over the algebraic closure of k. We also show how this can be extended to higher…

We give a defining equation of a complex smooth quartic surface containing 56 lines, and investigate its reductions to positive characteristics. This surface is isomorphic to the complex Fermat quartic surface, which contains only 48 lines.…
